                       It had been years since Alucard had been woken from his slumber. As a Vampire he didn't need this amount of sleep, but he felt it was necessary for him to be asleep in order to hide his power from the world as man had shown him time and again what they would do for power. The humans would kill anyone, they would steal anything if it made them feel whole, or if they had some kind of power of the human next to them. Alucard knew this better than anyone, his own mother died due to the humans thirst for power and money, his father went mad, resulting in the great war of the night. I wonder if humans are as I left them....Alucard thought to himself as he rose from his bed. It had been many years since he stepped out from his castle keep. Maybe...400 years he guessed staring out his castle window. So much has changed. He thought to himself. I wonder if humans are as ignorant and blind as they were when i went to sleep.

Walking to his closet he grabbed a black shirt and his coat. Grabbing his sword last, Alucard headed for the door. The sound of his boots on the castle's stone floor echoed throughout the hallways resonating a loud clicking sound. It looked like many years had passed since anyone walked these hallways. The Belmont clan must have been wiped out or moved from this location. And I guess none of them ever did learn how to make this castle move. He sighed deeply. So much that father did not teach me. Alucard was looking at the large painting of one of the Belmont ancestors when he heard a ringing voice.

"And this was the hallway in which Dracula was said to have fought his own Son, Alucard." a man said coming around the corner. "The battle took place sometime in 1474. That's what the history books say. No one really knows what happened to Vlad Tepes, but we do know that he once resided in this very castle." the man stopped when he saw Alucard standing in the hallway. The two looked at each other confused. Alucard, dressed as if he had just walked out of one of the paintings themselves. "Oh, sr. how nice of you to dress the time. But would u please stay with the rest of the tour?"

"I'm sorry," Alucard said looking the man dead in the eye. "But were you addressing me?"

"Look boy. Either get in the back of the tour or please find an exit." The man said harshly. "I don't have time to go looking for runaway Dracula fans."

"Dracula has fans?" Alucard said confused. "I was under the assumption that he was hated, not cooled off."

"Look kid. Either get with the rest of the group or I'm calling security." the man said harshly.

"Fine," Alucard said "I'm not in the mood to argue with you. I just woke up." a confused Alucard joined the rest of the humans walking the hallways of what once was his home. It felt odd to him having someone tell the history of his own home, and so very wrong and out of date. The man talked like he knew what he was going on about. But the Vampire knew all this was a lie.

"I have a question." Alucard said, stepping in front of the rest of the people.

"Yes?" the man said, "What can I do for you?"

"Why are you lying to these people?" Alucard said raising his hand. ''What power does lying to innocent humans grant you?"

"What did you just say?" the man said, stepping closer to the dampire. "Are you calling me a liar?"

"Obviously you are." Aluicard said "Half of what you just told these people was all a lie. Did no one tell anyone what happened here?"

"I have no idea what you're talking about. But sense you feel so inclined to tell me what I'm "Lying about" why don't you lead the tour." the man said glaring at Alucard. Thinking before acting, Alucard decided to keep his mouth shut. Sighing the Vampire headed in the opposite direction of the tour letting the man's voice fade into the distance. I need to grab some supplies and get out of here, before I do something I truly regret. Alucard headed to the passageway to his room. Looking behind himself he quickly uttered the words written on the wall opening the passageway to the upper levels of the castle.
